The Problem Is Not The Problem

In dealing with life’s hardships, we naturally identify what is broken, what emotions need to be controlled, and which circumstances need to get better. That is part of the human drive to survive. But there is something beyond brokenness, beyond any emotions we wish would go away. In the willingness to directly meet the pain we fear, rather than trying to control or get rid of it, there is a life-changing discovery of what is whole, complete, and has no need of fixing.

Reviews

I really enjoy and appreciate this conversation with Gangaji, although at the very beginning, I thought, if that was me sitting in the hot seat, I would be feeling very self-conscious and maybe a little shut down. I was a little worried for the seeker. And I wondered about my ability to stay with what was happening, if that had been me. But as the conversation continued, I could feel that she was guiding somewhere that I could personally really benefit from, and I was glad to get the feeling that the seeker seemed to be staying with her own experience. And because the app is asking me for my feedback, I will also let you know that I don’t really enjoy the intro and outro.

Incredible insight thank you

I needed to hear this today; I enjoyed the blend of levity and gravity.

Amazing and funny

I really like you Gangaji! Thank you for this funny and serious talk at the same time!
